The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in, and constitute a part of this specification illustrate exemplary implementations and embodiments of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain principles of the invention.
Reference will now be made in detail to implementations and embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.
As also shown, each subpixel is connected to a column line (each driven by a column driver 110) and a row line (e.g. 112 and 114). In the field of AMLCD panels, it is known to drive the panel with a dot inversion scheme to reduce crosstalk and flicker.
Repeating group 202 of
In the co-pending '232 application, now issued as U.S. Pat. No. 6,903,754 B2, there is disclosed various layouts and methods for remapping the TFT backplane so that, although the TFTs of the subpixels may not be regularly positioned with respect to the pixel element itself (e.g. the TFT is not always in the upper left hand corner of the pixel element), a suitable dot inversion scheme may be effected on a panel having an even modulo subpixel repeat grouping. Other possible solutions are possible and disclosed in the co-pending applications noted above.
If it is desired not to re-design the TFT backplane, and if it is also desired to utilize standard column drivers to effect a suitable dot inversion scheme, one possible implementation is to employ crossover connections to the standard column driver lines, as herein described. The first step to a final and suitable implementation is to design a polarity inversion pattern to suit the subpixel repeating group in question. For example, subpixel repeating group 202 of
with the R and B subpixels on a checkerboard and G subpixels interspersed between. Although
So, with the idea of choosing suitable polarity inversion patterns that would minimize flicker and crosstalk, the following are but a few exemplary embodiments disclosed:
Pattern 1: R+G+B+G−R−G+B−G−[REPEAT]
Pattern 2: R+G+B−G−R−G+B+G−[REPEAT]
Pattern 3: R+G−B+G+R−G−B−G+[REPEAT]
Pattern 4: R+G−B−G+R−G−B+G+[REPEAT]
First Embodiment of Pattern 1:
Patterns 1 through 4 above exemplify several possible basis patterns upon which several inversion schemes may be realized. A property of each of these patterns is that the polarity applied to each color alternates with each incidence of color.
These and other various polarity inversion patterns can then be implemented upon a panel having subpixel repeating group 202 and Patterns 1-4 as a template. For example, a first embodiment of pattern 1 is shown above. The first row repeats the polarities of pattern 1 above and then, for the second row, the polarities are inverted. Then, as shown above, applying alternating 2 row inversion, alternating polarities of R and B in their own color planes may be realized. And the Gs alternate every second row. The second embodiment of Pattern 1 shown above, however, allows for alternating Gs every row.
It will be appreciated that other basis patterns may be suitable that alternate every two or more incidences of a colored subpixel and still achieve desirable results. It will also be appreciated that the techniques described herein may be used in combination with the techniques of the other co-pending applications noted above. For example, the patterns and crossovers described herein could be applied to a TFT backplane that has some or all of its TFT located in different locations with respect to the pixel element. Additionally, there may be reasons when designing the driver to alternate less frequently than every incidence (e.g., G less often than R and/or B) in order to reduce driver complexity or cost.
Polarity inversion patterns, such as the ones above, may be implemented at various stages in the system. For example, the driver could be changed to implement the pattern directly. Alternatively, the connections on the panel glass could be rerouted. For example,
To implement the crossovers, a simple process can be used that utilizes existing processing steps for TFTs.
Another embodiment of a crossover is shown in
One possible drawback to the crossovers is a potential visual effect wherein every crossover location may have a visually darker or lighter column—if this effect is not compensated.
This same darker or lighter column effect occurs in another possible solution to the problem of image degradation or shadowing if same colored pixels have the same polarity along a row for an extended area on the screen.
In order to correct or otherwise compensate for the darker or lighter columns that occur as described herein, a predetermined voltage can be added to the data voltage on the darker or lighter columns so as to compensate for the dark or light column. This correction voltage is independent of the data voltage so can be added as a fixed amount to all darker or lighter columns. This correction value can be stored in a ROM incorporated in the driver electronics.
A second compensation method is the look forward compensation method. In this method, each of the data values of the pixels connected to data lines adjacent to the affect pixel are examined for the subsequent frame. From these values, an average compensation value can be calculated and applied to the affected pixel. The compensation value can be derived to a precision suitable to the application. This method requires a frame buffer to store the next frame worth of data. From this stored data, the compensation value would be derived.
A third method is the look back method. Under the assumption that the frame to frame difference in the compensation value is negligible, the data from the previous frame's data may be used to calculate the compensation value for the affected pixel. This method will generally provide a more accurate compensation value than the first method without requiring the frame buffer described in the second method. The third method may have the greatest error under some specific scene changes. By detecting the occurrence of those scene changes, the look back compensation may be turned off, and an alternate method, such as no compensation or either of the compensation methods described above, may be applied for that circumstance.
For the above implementations and embodiments, it is not necessary that crossover connections or polarity inversions be placed for every occurrence of a subpixel repeating group. Indeed, while it might be desirable to have no two incidences of a same-colored subpixel having the same polarity, the visual effect and performance of the panel, from a user's standpoint, might be good enough to abate any undesirable visual effects by allowing some two or more incidences of same-colored subpixels (in either a row or column direction) to have the same polarity. Thus, it suffices for the purposes of the present invention that there could be fewer crossover connections or polarity inversions to achieve a reasonable abatement of bad effects. Any fewer number of crossover connections or polarity inversions could be determined empirically or heuristically, while noting the visual effects thereof, in order to achieve satisfactory performance from a user's standpoint.
